I mostly try to track the SW side of town and it's a big city.<br /><br />I looked back at my review and saw I had the chorriperros at El Paisa. not the hot dog. Unfortunately they charcoalized the chorizo and I did not care for the crushed chips and pineapple. It was very similar to the Venezuelan dog I had at Sabor Venozolano but the one I still want to try is the Guatemalan Shuco.<br /><br />I've been to City Eats to try the Sabretts, which I'd never had before, but didn't notice the Colombian dog!<br /><br />BTW, right next to the original Pollo Rico on Fondren is Rico Cafe (coffee) by the same people. Not sure if it's open yet.<br /><br />What is very impressive about all the Colombian places I've been to is the consistently tasty food, unlike some ethnic varieties when you occasionally encounter something very poorly done, there is a consistency of quality and tastiness.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689118444867837021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-39278953516301736932011-01-09T10:34:30.425-06:002011-01-09T10:34:30.425-06:00Believe me, Bruce--every Colombian I know (many) l...Believe me, Bruce--every Colombian I know (many) lets me know of some place I missed! Still, several well-placed Houstonian Colombians have told me they learned of several places on the list that they never knew existed. A cool place called City Eats in Kingwood, of all places, does a really good Colombian hot dog (as well as a great version of a New Jersey-style Italian Hot Dog and many other tempting offerings): http://www.cityeatstexas.com/John Nechmanhttp://www.lawkn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-63235683510482904352011-01-09T10:15:01.450-06:002011-01-09T10:15:01.450-06:00Thanks for the link, John.

Glad you liked the chorizo at Pandarepa. <br /><br />You missed the two Colombian hot dog carts listed on the International truck thread! I haven't tried any Colombian dogs except the two at El Paisa.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689118444867837021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-75245417398580441942011-01-09T08:43:06.690-06:002011-01-09T08:43:06.690-06:00Hi Bruce,

I wrote an article on Houston's Colombian restaurants that appeared in the latest My Table issue, and unbelievably, I left off Las Delicias.

I try and make my way south when I can, having just gotten back from both Honduras and Nicaragua, to indulge in delicious food; so it is with anticipation and a side of jealous that I wait for your next posts.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the great work.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06079593868111830799noreply@blogger.com
